Description

    BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
  • A. Field of the Invention
  • The present invention is related to condensers for commercial refrigeration systems and more particularly to a low maintenance condenser coil for commercial refrigeration systems, which does not make use of aluminum fins.
  • B. Description of Related Art
  • In commercial refrigeration systems, the use of finned condenser coils and an inadequate maintenance to these devices which mainly comprise the cleaning of the coil fins, causes important problems to the refrigeration systems that ranges from a temperature rise of the system, an increase of the operative pressures, a decrease of the useful life of the components, greater energy consume to premature failures of the components, mainly of the compressor, which is an expensive and essential component of the refrigeration system. These issues cause problems in the points of sale with the delivery of the final products that are not cooled enough by the refrigeration systems and therefore a rise of the operational costs.
  • In view of the above problems, recently, there has been a trend in the use of commercial refrigeration systems having low maintenance condensers. Such condensers eliminate the use of fins by raising the length of the pipes or the number of pipes. By eliminating the use of fins, the maintenance of the condenser coils is simplified or is carried out more sporadically. There are different shapes and configurations of condenser coils without fins such as aligned circuits (in columns or rows) or in a spiral configuration. Said condensers have good performance, however they use a larger quantity of refrigerant gas since the circuits are longer, thus increasing the power consumed by the compressor and the energy consume. Also, since said condenser coils are bigger, they require a larger space for its installation and therefore, there are not suitable for smaller refrigeration systems where the installation of such condenser coils is impossible. Finally there are technologic and economic limitations when using said condensers in combination with coils having small diameters.
  • There are also low maintenance condensers made of steel pipes or cooper plated steel pipes, which add a secondary area for heat dissipation by the use of steel sheets. There are more efficient than the condenser coils without fins, however they are less durable specially when exposed to saline environments due to the material that are made of (steel). Although there are made with different shapes and configurations, the most common is the helical shape.
  • There are also low maintenance condenser coils made of cooper which integrates as secondary heat dissipation area an extruded aluminum section, wherein the efficiency of the coil is determined by the contact area between both materials, furthermore, this kind of condenser is very expensive since it uses additional material for heat dissipation.
  • In view of the above referred problems, applicant developed a low maintenance condenser for commercial refrigeration systems made of a single extruded aluminum section. The aluminum is a no ferromagnetic metal that has combination of properties that makes it very useful for mechanic engineering due to its low density and high resistance to corrosion, to chemical attack, to outdoors and to sea water, thanks to a layer of Al2O3. Its mechanical strength can be optimized by the use of adequate metal alloys. Additionally, it has an elevated thermal conductivity (80 at 230 w/m.k), it can be easily mechanized. It can be easily recycled and its price is stable.
  • The low maintenance condenser of the present invention is made of a single section of extruded aluminum, in which the pipes trough which the refrigerant gas circulates and the heat dissipation areas are integrally formed in the single section. The extruded section may have one or more pipes and the interior surface of the pipes may be smooth or striated. The interior diameter of the pipes may be of from 1/16″ to 1″.
  • The end of the pipes are interconnected in such way that there is only one gas input and one gas output and therefore the refrigerant gas flows through the entire length of the pipes.
  • The low maintenance condenser of the present invention allows lengthening the maintenance intervals, or to reduce or even eliminate the necessity of maintenance depending on the operating conditions of the refrigeration system. Since the condenser (its pipes as well as the heat dissipation area) is made of a single piece and of a single material, it is ideal for heat removal or heat transference, which makes it thermodynamically efficient.
  • The reduced diameter of the pipes allows to reduce the amount of refrigerant gas in the system and thus to make efficient the refrigeration system by reducing the amount of power required by the compressor. The efficiency of the condenser of the present invention, also lies on the design of the heat dissipation area (the section between the pipes), which allows an optimum contact area with air for dissipating heat.
    • SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
  • It is therefore a main object of the present invention to provide a low maintenance condenser for commercial refrigeration systems made of a single extruded aluminum section.
  • It is another main object of the present invention to provide a low maintenance condenser of the above referred nature which is made of a single section of extruded aluminum, in which the pipes trough which the refrigerant gas circulates and the heat dissipation areas are integrally formed in the single section.
